1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a highly common chronic disease that decreases functional capacity and can cause disability. The early detection of the disease could help to develop treatments that may reduce the progression if not cure the disease. Proteoglycan depletion is known to occur at an early state of OA and the delayed gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of cartilage (dGEMRIC) is currently considered as one of the most accurate methods for analyzing the depletion in articular cartilage (AC) despite the toxicity-related issues with gadolinium contrast agents. The aim of this study was to investigate the usability of amorphous manganese oxide (MnOx) for assessing the proteoglycan content in AC. The relaxation times of MnOx were determined at various fields and compared with the effect of gadolinium-diethylene triamine pentaacetic acid (Gd-DTPA) at 7.1 T. The diffusion of MnOx and Gd-DTPA into AC was analyzed ex vivo and followed for 24 h. Cartilage degeneration was evaluated with two histological scoring systems (OARSI and Mankin) to assess the relationship between OA severity and MnOx concentration. Relaxivity of MnOx was high and diffusion to the AC was faster than that of Gd-DTPA at 7.1 T. Using MnOx, T
